Does anyone have a copy of 'I have reaped my mealies' by Hugh Lanion Hall.
I wanted to check a reference but found my copy has gone walkabout.
I'd be grateful if someone could assist.
Thanks
Julian

One chapter is reproduced on-line by the South African Military history Society - unfortunately it's not the chapter I want but it does cover part of the Zulu war. If it's of use to you it can be found on

Does anyone else own a copy at all??!?!? (punctuation marks which show desperation).

Thanks. Yes, they do disappear quickly these days, don't they? Before you even get a chance to read them properly or give them the consideration they deserve!

Can I just thank the person who helped me with the reference I was after. I know you wanted to remain anonymous, which I'll respect, but I'm very grateful.
